Chocolates to share
Christmas boxes
In the UK, Christmas wouldn't be complete without a box of chocolates. Cadbury 's Roses have been around since 1938, and Heroes, miniature versions of the brand's bars, since 1999. Every family has their own box, and everyone has their favorites. To help pass the time until the 25th, there are Cadbury , Galaxy , and Milkybar Advent calendars. All our ideas are in our Christmas Special selection.
Terry's Chocolate Orange
Terry's was founded in York in 1767. Their Chocolate Orange is a ritual: you tap it on the table to separate the segments, then you unwrap it. It comes in milk, dark, white, and mint chocolate, as well as in a mini version.
Bites, lozenges and assortments
Buttons, milk chocolate pastilles, are the first chocolate for many English children. Éclairs hide a chocolate center inside a caramel. Cadbury also offers its bars in bite-sized forms: Twirl Bites, Bitsa Wispa, Curly Wurly Squirlies, and Crunchie Rocks. Poppets coat toffee, mint, or popcorn in chocolate. And Thorntons , the English chocolatier founded in 1911, offers its Classic and Mint assortments.
At Easter
Mini Eggs, small eggs with a crunchy sugar shell, have been the star of spring since 1967, along with filled Easter eggs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know
Where can I buy English sweets and chocolates in France?
At Candy Dukes , your online British grocery store, we import top UK brands every week ( Cadbury , Maynards Bassetts , Swizzels , Terry's , Galaxy , etc.) and deliver them all over France. No need to cross the Channel to find your favorite sweets.
What is the difference between English chocolate and French chocolate?
British milk chocolate is milkier, sweeter, and lower in cocoa than most French chocolates. It's also smoother. This is what gives Cadbury Dairy Milk or Galaxy its distinctive taste, so different from a typical French chocolate bar.
Are the English sweets sold on Candy Dukes the same as those in the UK?
Yes. Our sweets are imported directly from the UK, in their original recipe and packaging. You'll find exactly the same taste as the sweets you buy across the Channel. The list of ingredients and allergens is indicated on each product page.
What are the most popular English sweets?
Among the great British classics are Maynards Bassetts ' Wine Gums and Jelly Babies, Swizzels ' Love Hearts and Drumsticks, Terry's Chocolate Orange, Maltesers , and of course Cadbury Dairy Milk. Fudges and toffees, like those from Walkers ' Nonsuch, are also very popular at teatime.
Do you have any vegan, vegetarian, or gluten-free sweets?
Yes. In each section, the "Vegetarian," "Vegan," and "Gluten-Free" filters display only suitable products. Allergens are also detailed on each product page.
What is fudge and toffee?
These are two classic British confections, made with sugar, butter, and milk. fudge is soft and slightly crumbly. Toffee is firmer and caramelized, perfect for biting into or letting melt. They're both wonderful with a cup of tea.
How to store English chocolates?
Store away from heat, light, and humidity, ideally between 15 and 18°C. Avoid the refrigerator, which can cause the chocolate to bloom (develop a white coating). This doesn't spoil it, but it does change its texture.
What does anti-waste mean at Candy Dukes ?
At Candy Dukes , nothing goes to waste. Products nearing or past their best-before date are offered at reduced prices, up to 80% off. You get a great deal, and a perfectly good product doesn't end up in the bin. A small step for the planet, and a big treat for those with a sweet tooth.
What is the difference between a DDM and a DLC?
The "use by" date applies to fresh products, such as meat or dairy: once this date has passed, they should no longer be consumed. The "best before" date applies to grocery products: sweets, biscuits, teas, canned goods, sauces, etc. After this date, the product remains safe to eat. Only its quality may change slightly. To reduce food waste, we only offer products with a "best before" date, never with a "use by" date.
